Famous quotes containing the words flag and/or days:
“Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.
Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (19141965)
“Thus is his cheek the map of days outworn.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
